Getting Started with Your Phone Charging with USB You can use your computer to charge your phone. Connect one end of the USB cable to the charging accessory port on your phone and the other end to a highpower USB port on your PC. NOTE Low power USB port is not supported, such as the USB port on your keyboard or bus-powered USB hub. USB driver should be installed before charging with USB. Battery Temperature Protection Though extremely rare, should the battery ever become overheated, the phone will automatically turn off. When you turn the phone back on, a message pops up alerting you that the phone was powered off for your safety. Battery Charge Level You can find the battery charge level at the top right of the LCD screen. When the charge level becomes low, the battery sensor sounds a warning tone, blinks the battery icon, and displays a warning message. As the charge level approaches empty, the phone automatically switches off without saving. Signal Strength Call quality depends on the signal strength in your area. You can tell how much signal strength you have by the number of bars next to the signal strength icon: the more bars, the stronger the signal. If you're having problems with signal quality, move to an open area or, when inside a building, try moving near a window. Turning the Phone On and Off Turning the Phone On 1. Install a charged battery or connect the phone to an external power source. 2. Press (located above the key on the keypad) until the LCD screen lights up. 20
